Old Fashioned Sloppy Joes

Ingredients

  • 1 lb 80/20 ground beef*
  • 1 small onion chopped fine
  • 1 medium green pepper chopped fine
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • ½ cup ketchup
  • 2 teaspoon yellow mustard
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil

Instructions

  • Sauté onions and pepper in 1 tablespoon canola oil in a large frying pan over medium-low heat for about 5 minutes, until they begin to soften.
  • Move onions and peppers to outer edge of pan and increase heat to medium-high. Spread ground beef out in center of pan in an even layer and cook, undisturbed, for 5 minutes, or until meat begins to brown.
  • Season beef with salt and pepper, and flip over. Continue to cook, breaking meat apart into small pieces as you go with a wooden spoon or spatula, until meat is cooked through and no longer pink, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low and add in ketchup, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce and sugar. Cook 2-3 minutes until flavors are melded. Serve on burger buns, brioche buns or potato rolls.
